Nikko Cottage FU-SHA

I really enjoyed my stay at FU SHA Nikko Cottage. The host, Yoshiko, was friendly and very helpful. Yoshiko picked me up from the train station when I arrived in Nikko and dropped me off at the station when I departed. She provided me with maps and useful information on hiking in Nikko National Park. The cottage is small, comfortable and located a short walk from Toshogu temple, Rinnoji temple, and Futarasan shrine. Yoshiko provided bread, jam, fruit, yogurt, coffee, tea, and juice every morning for breakfast. The cottage is simple, comfortable, and I definitely recommend staying here as it’s good value for money.

The stay was so lovely and the house is old but really well taken care of. Thank you so much for all the good care during our stay!

Host was amazing and went above and beyond. We were very thankful and felt very welcome. Beautiful location.

Yoshiko is an amazing host. Very helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. She saved us a lot of time and headache by helping us planning our day and driving us around. The place is also very nice and homely. Wonderful stay. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Our group of three had a wonderful stay at Fu Cottage. Yoshiko’s warm and attentive hospitality truly made our visit special—she went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable throughout our stay. The location is excellent, with easy walking access to nearby shrines, local eateries, and charming sweet shops. If you’re looking for an authentic Japanese lodging experience, this cottage is a perfect choice. As it’s an older traditional building, we did encounter a few beetles inside, but it was minimal and didn’t detract from our stay. The cottage was well heated and felt cozy throughout our visit. Space-wise, it’s ideal for three adults; a fourth guest would be manageable, though a bit snug. Overall, I highly recommend Fu Cottage—it’s a charming, comfortable, and culturally rich place to stay during your time in Nikko.
